To Whom Can You Report Sexual Misconduct?

If you or someone you know at UMGC has experienced any of the prohibited behaviors described in UMGC's Sexual Misconduct Policy, you have the right to file an internal complaint with the Title IX Coordinator or a Title IX Investigator.

You can report the experience to any of the following:

Title IX coordinator
Title IX investigators
Responsible employees (please see Reporting Sexual Misconduct to Responsible Employees for more information)

You may seek assistance and support from UMGC's Confidential Employee without triggering an investigation or disclosure of the victim's identity. The only exception to confidentiality is when there appears to be an imminent risk of serious harm or when maintaining that confidentiality would result in the violation of a legal requirement.
